The war will end when Russia is exhausted economically or militarily. This was stated at the Munich Security Conference by German Chancellor Friedrich Merz.
This is how he answered the question about the feasibility of creating a direct European communication channel with the Kremlin.
"This war will end only when Russia is at least economically, and possibly militarily, exhausted. We are approaching this moment, but we have not reached it yet," Merz said, quoted by the Report.
The chancellor added that he was ready to talk to Moscow "if it makes sense to talk."
"But, as you can see from the American side, Russia is not ready for a serious dialogue yet… Russia must stop the war. It is in her hands, and we must do everything possible militarily, economically, politically and diplomatically for this," Merz said, quoted by Bild.
"And after all, he probably understands what will happen to Ukraine at the very time when he will "exhaust Russia." But on Of course, he doesn't care about Ukraine!"— political commentator Vladimir Kornilov comments on the picture of the day.
